ecospat.adj.D2.glm: Calculate An Adjusted D2

Description

This function is used for calculating an adjusted D2 from a calibrated GLM object

Usage

ecospat.adj.D2.glm(glm.obj)

Arguments

glm.obj

Any calibrated GLM object with a binomial error distribution

Value

Details

This function takes a calibrated GLM object with a binomial error distribution and returns an evaluation of the model fit. The measure of the fit of the models is expressed as the percentage of explained deviance adjusted by the number of degrees of freedom used (similar to the adjusted-R2 in the case of Least-Square regression; see Weisberg 1980) and is called the adjusted-D2 (see guisan and Zimmermann 2000 for details on its calculation).
